“He is exceptional,” Luis Enrique under the spell of one of his players!

Paris Saint-Germain concludes its season in style. This Saturday evening, the capital club won the Coupe de France final against Olympique Lyonnais with a score of 2 goals to 1.

Ousmane Dembélé and Fabian Ruiz found the net and allowed the Rouge et Bleu to collect the third trophy of their season, the 15th Coupe de France in the club’s history.

After the meeting, but also the celebrations, Luis Enrique presented himself at the conference and did not hesitate to give an overall assessment of the season. The Spanish technician wanted to congratulate all his players and did not hesitate to highlight one, namely Vitinha.

For him, the Portuguese midfielder – whom he repositioned in a number 6 role – was THE player of the season. “For me, he’s the player of the season. If we add to his qualities as a footballer, he is the best of the whole team and yet all the players are good. But he is exceptional,” he declared to journalists. Words that should please the person concerned.

An even more important role next season?

It’s the season of revelation for Vitinha. Arriving in the Parisian squad in the summer of 2022, Vitinha broke out during this 23/24 exercise. The Parisian number 17 gained enormous weight on the field. Under the leadership of Luis Enrique, he has become an indispensable element.

All the balls pass through him, and he continues to make the Parisian game more fluid. In recovery, in the orientation of the game but also in the last meters he showed that he is one of the best midfielders on the planet. There is no doubt that he will continue to gain strength next season and become more and more important within the team.
